Oriental Delight - (Near Kent, South East)

David Clarke Here we go. Don’t let its humble, tucked away location put you off. Taj Cuisine does not follow the “all trousers and no pants” precedent of many Indian restaurants. This is the real deal. The accolades that litter its walls aren’t there by accident. Service is accurate, attentive and perceptive. The owner made me feel welcomed and ensured my needs were met by checking in throughout the course of my visit. Surroundings are comfortable and very much like that of regular Indian restaurants. What is different is the dishes. They are exciting, dramatic, looking and tasting absolutely beautiful. My main course was edging towards fine dining given its presentation and quality. This is one of the best Indian restaurants in Kent, class in a Chatham retail estate glass.

Dan Morgan My partner and I stayed for two nights, and the experience was impeccable. The hotel itself is laid out well; it was quiet and relaxing, and the staff definitely went above and beyond. The swimming pool was lovely, and the ambience was very peaceful. The restaurant catered well to our needs, and the staff there were incredibly nice; when we had to wait a while for our food, they didnt charge us for some of our drinks and were so polite about it. My only small issue—hardly worth mentioning—was that the plug sockets in the bedroom could have been a bit more accessible. It was a minor inconvenience, as there were plugs available if you hunted for them. However, the room itself was quite spacious, the bed was huge, and the bathroom was very clean and well-presented. I am definitely considering returning in the future.

Wayne Marshall The sea food is so fresh you got to try it

Moon Suen The food is very tasty. The staff are friendly. I will come again. The chicken is crispy and juicy. I like it very much. Good price and delicious food. Highly recommend.

John Fuller Recently done up with new seating and decor, this place has a friendly welcome and serves good food at a reasonable price. I had the cheese & ham omelette with salad (low carb) which was truly excellent. They really took pride in serving up a salad that was far above my expectations for a cafe. The omelette was of a generous size, superbly cooked and very tasty. Highly recommended!!

Will de Bolla Felt like a bit of a hidden gem at the price point - slightly hidden away location, although still easy to get to and plenty of parking ok site. We had a very large group but didnt need to preorder, and the food was served swiftly to the whole group so no waiting for ages with food getting cold while waiting for everyone to be served. Pub is split into two parts - am olde-worlde bar with a fire, and a more modern dining room. Slightly odd together but fine. Had a swing outside for the kids to play on, which entertained them for a while. Food was good solid pub grub. Overall, its not a high class place but good food, good service in a typical country pub setting for a good price.
